Chi Dong Temple

Chi Dong Temple is located in Chi Dong village, Quang Minh commune (Hanoi City), within the national-level historical-cultural relic complex comprising Chi Dong Communal House – Temple – Pagoda

Chi Dong Temple worships two generals of King Trieu Viet Vuong, Truong Hong and Truong Hat - national heroes who contributed to fighting invaders and defending the country in the 6th century. The worship of Duc Thanh Tam Giang has persisted over many centuries, crystallizing the martial spirit, loyalty, and indomitable will of the Vietnamese people. Each festival season is an occasion when that tradition is revived and spread within the community.

The Chi Dong Communal House – Temple – Pagoda complex (in which the pagoda has the Sino-Vietnamese name Phuc Long Tu) was ranked by the Ministry of Culture and Information as a national-level architectural and artistic relic in 1993

Every year, the locality organizes the traditional Chi Dong Communal House – Temple – Pagoda festival (usually held from the 15th to the 18th day of the first lunar month), attracting a large number of people with distinctive activities such as traditional wrestling competitions
